South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol went Saturday to testify before the court that must decide whether or not to extend the arrest of the deposed president, detained by the national anti-corruption bureau for his fleeting declaration of martial law.

Supporters of impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol rallied on Friday near the presidential residence in Seoul to demonstrate against his possible arrest. The protest comes after a court extended the deadline for Yoon's arrest warrant for his controversial attempt to impose martial law in December 2024.

Yoon Suk Yeol became the first South Korean leader to be held by criminal investigators, ending a long standoff after he imposed martial law.
